Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

it is sweeter than your ‘average’ oloroso monster, and by the way, it’s not a monster. But indeed, it’s close to those lovely old VORS they have in Jerez, between old Corinth raisins and precious walnut cakes. You could almost describe it as ‘bodega-y’, with these whiffs of old wine cellar. I mean, a proper Jerezian winemaker’s (or breeder, a.k.a. almacenista), bodega. With water: pretty fantastic, despite the few struck matches that are prowling around this wee Dalmore

restaurant Palate

very good, pretty thick, rich, yet elegant, full of prunes, walnuts, blood oranges, dried figs, just a touch of gunpowder, liquorice… With water: perhaps a notch more gunpowder, and some grassier notes. Cooked asparagus, Brussels sprout…

timer Finish

long, nutty, a tad tarry and smoky. That gunpowder
